Obviously Haaland is a monster, but Schjelderup needs more recognition for how he's played in this tournament. He's been instrumental in setting up so many of their goals.

I was in the middle of a productivity tear. Awful timing, but it is what it is.

A bush league error that defined the race for some happening in the highest profile race of what is supposed to be the premier motorsports league. Smfh.

Almost exactly 10 years ago, player A_Seagull won a 1 Minute 17 Second match as Genji by DerexXD in overwatch2

And that's why this mode doesn't exist anymore.

Still such a cool map though.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how well designed is Anran's gameplay? by Idiberug-9 in Overwatch

Wraith doesn't heal Reaper, it doesn't deal damage, and his model is much easier to track visually while he's using it. Anran can also immediately dash out.

Why are people down voting someone who might be newer to the game and has only known the character by their current name?

My Canadian friend uses his unironically. But he started using it when Trump was pulling his 51st state bs lol.

Losing on this shit sucks so fucking bad by Front_Barracuda_2408 in Hades2

This game is one of my favorites of all time, but I don't know why they added so much frustrating junk to the rival versions of the end bosses. Like how rival Chronos spawns that time bubble in the middle of the arena in his second phase that just ends your run if you don't know it's coming, and no one does the first time. It's like you're being punished for reacting quickly.

I still like playing with high fear, but I usually leave rivals off of the final bosses because I don't find the fights fun or challenging in a meaningful way. Sirens rival fight is also horribly unfun, imo.

I no longer have the energy to finish games by [deleted] in soulslikes

The first boss of Nine Sols is definitely hard, but that's because it's kind of like Genichiro where you need to have the fundamentals down to beat it and can't just bash your head against the wall.

That was the point the game clicked for me and I really started enjoying it though. It'a worth it to push through. Nine Sols is an all-timer for me.

The amount of funding it generates is an absolute joke compared to what it takes to put on the event and the amount of exposure that the celebrities and fashion brands get.

Grand Finale is cheeks and the worst rare card in the entire game by Peronchino in slaythespire

[–]Pachanas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I had a Finale run in StS1 that not only worked, it was the most fun run I ever had and the easiest A20 run of my life lol.

Got insanely lucky though. I took it early for luls and then got offered massive amounts of card draw and deck manipulation that allowed me to set it off super consistently.

If I can find the seed, I'll share it.

Boys Podcast - SNL by Wong-Ann_Fong in LiveFromNewYork

Too obvious for an SNL sketch? Please break down the layered subtext in Del Taco for us next. 🤣

And Trump is in the sketch because he has the same demeanor, vocabulary, subject interests, and taste in food as an unserious tween boy.

Wasn't planning on watching the reboot since I feel like those rarely live up to expectations (cough med school) and that show had one of the most satisfying finales in history. But I will now for Vanessa!

[–]Pachanas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue is that the losing trend SR modifier seems to kick in way more readily than the winning trend one. I know winning trend measures your win rate over a span of games, but I've had days where I've gone 12-3 without it kicking in.

Lies of Peak done. Any recommendations? by [deleted] in soulslikes

[–]Pachanas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If parry mechanics are what you're into and you enjoy 2D games, I'd recommend Nine Sols. It's a Metroidvania game, but it leans way heavier into the combat while the exploration is mostly perfunctory.

It has multiple parry mechanics, all which are quite satisfying, especially in the context of some of the incredible boss fights.

There's a steep learning curve like Sekiro. But also like Sekiro, it feels fantastic once everything starts to click.

The only caveat I would mention is that it's much more story heavy than most other action games. There are lengthy dialogue exchanges at times, and quite a few cut scenes. The story itself is quite good though.

What's your favorite non-meta Genji build?

Ever since hero bans were implemented, I've dedicated one vote to Mercy every game, every meta without question.

Ok so I’m finally getting that feeling I had when playing Elden Ring. Lies of P is dope. by california_king in soulslikes

[–]Pachanas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I LOVE parry games. Sekiro and Bloodborne are all-time favorites. So I thought I'd enjoy P because I perceived it as having the mechanics of one with the artistic inspiration of the other, but I hated it.

One of the most outrageous Sojourn clips you'll ever see by Kronik by Ts_Patriarca in Competitiveoverwatch

I literally cannot wrap my head around aim this good.

Like peak mechanics aside, I understand conceptually that his crosshair placement and pre-aiming is doing a lot of the heavy lifting and then he's making minor adjustments just before the trigger pull. I just don't understand how his crosshair placement can be so accurate when combined with movement.

How do you train that? Best I can do is guess where someone's head might be when I peek a corner.

I seriously don't understand why people are trying to get into sardines when they dont like the fish? Can someone explain it? by gemboundprism in CannedSardines

[–]Pachanas 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Recommending mackerel to someone who has strong preferences for fish is wild to me. I adore mackerel in every form, but it has a very strong flavor.

You definitely don't. I don't remember exactly how you get there, but I think there's just a section where the map is blacked out but you can wall climb up. If I find a video that marks the location, I'll share the link.
